French Culture and Civilization: The New Face of France

L34 French 311C

We will study the life and culture of France with special emphasis placed on the changes that are slowly but radically transforming French society: the increasing influence of the European Union; the influx of immigrants from Africa and other parts of the world; the growing role of "Beurs" and other French citizens born of foreign parents; the increasingly dominant position of women; the globalization of French culture, technological progress, etc. We will also concentrate on developing vocabulary and improving written and spoken French. Lectures, discussions, TV newscasts, films and internet. Prereq: Fr 201D, or placement by examination.

SELF AND OTHER: Perception, Idealization and Connection. We study the dramatic and lyrical worlds of human interaction. Beginning with the complex courtly rituals of the age of Versailles, we will examine the themes of connection and estrangement in the plays of Corneille, Molière, and Racine. Focusing on how identities are produced through intricate negotiations with other people, we will examine the self-delusion and alienation inherent in the existentialist theater of Sartre. The class will then enter the poetic universes of Ronsard, Baudelaire, Rimbaud, and the Surrealists. Students will experience the poets' exalted idealizations of the beloved along with their lucid examination of the boundaries between self and other.

THE DETAIL: We will examine characters against a background of things discovered and inherited, bought and exchanged, adored and mourned. In their depictions of characters' struggles, authors present an array of objects whose details capture our imagination through suggestions of magical powers, prosperity, love, and loss: jewelry, clothing, portraits, furnishings. The detail suggests a world of abundance: the accumulation of goods within an expanding economy; the excesses of an ornamental and decadent lifestyle; the proliferation of memories and nostalgic longings. Whatever the material conditions it relates, however, the detail remains fundamentally an aesthetic form, often coded as feminine. We will study how the authors' descriptions allow them to color the world much like a painter: one stroke, one detail at a time. Works to include Chrétien de Troyes, YVAIN; Marguerite de Navarre, L'HEPTAMERON, Lafayette, LA PRINCESSE DE CLEVES; Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, PAUL ET VIRGINIE; Flaubert, MADAME BOVARY; Proust, COMBRAY; and Toussaint, LA SALLE DE BAIN, and selected paintings from each period.

CINEMA AND SOCIETY: RADICAL CINEMA

L34 French 376C

Since the earliest experimental films of the Lumière brothers and Georges Méliès, French cinema has often found itself at the forefront of "radical" artistic and social thought. We will explore the many ways in which French and Francophone films have grappled with tensions between the status quo and radical change, whether by asking audiences to rethink how stories can be told; by questioning the meaning of realism and fantasy; or by reassessing issues of society, class, race, and gender. Films will include selected works by Renoir, Carné, Rohmer, Cantet, the Dardenne brothers, Bunuel, Godard, Carrere, Resnais, Truffaut, Varda, Ayouch, and others from the first years of cinema to the present day.This course studies how French cinema examines issues of social import. Prereq: French 307D. Taught in French.

Advanced French and Translation

L34 French 4131

Building on the foundation established in the third year, this course aims at an in-depth knowledge of the French language and accuracy in its use. It will use a comparative approach (linguistic and cultural) and systematic exercises to attain this goal, and to assist students in the demanding task of translating, both from English to French and from French to English. This course mainly offers practical training using a wide range of document types, developing strategies of translation, and sensitizing students to the problem of cultural transfer. Prereq: French 307D, and French 308D or French 318D. Writing Intensive. May be taken in place of 411 toward the completion of the French major. PRIORITY IN REGISTRATION WILL BE GIVEN TO FRENCH MAJORS. Registrants for this class will be waitlisted; all French majors will be admitted from the waitlist, then non-majors will be admitted as space permits.

L34 French 419

This course provides a historical overview of feminist literary and cultural theories since the 1960s and 70s, acquainting students with a diversity of voices within contemporary feminism and gender studies. Readings will include works of French feminism, Foucault's History of Sexuality, feminist responses to Foucault, queer (LGBTQ) theory, postcolonial and decolonial feminism, feminist disability theory, and writings by US feminists of color (African-American, Asian-American, Latina, Native-American). The reading list will be updated each year to reflect new developments in the discipline. We will approach these readings from an intersectional and interdisciplinary perspective, considering their dialogue with broader sociopolitical, cultural, and philosophical currents. By the end of the course, students are expected to have gained a basic knowledge of the major debates in feminist literary and cultural studies in the last 50 years, as well as the ability to draw on the repertoire of readings to identify and frame research questions in their areas of specialization. The class will be largely interactive, requiring active participation and collaborative effort on the part of the students. Students will be encouraged to make relevant connections between the class readings, everyday social and political issues, and their own research interests. NOTE: This course is in the core curriculum for the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies graduate certificate. Prereq: Advanced course work in WGSS or in literary theory (300-level and above) or permission of the instructor required.

FRENCH 17TH-CENTURY THEATER II: STAGES OF DESIRE, VIOLENCE, AND (DIS)ORDER

L34 French 428

The staging of power in the 17th-century France involves the force of law; destructive rivalries; seductions; painful sacrifices; and the inevitability of decay. The class will study great roles associated with the comedies and tragedies of Corneille, Molière, and Racine, including not only kings but also men and women who dare to challenge them: HORACE, TARTUFFE, DOM JUAN, ANDROMAQUE, PHEDRE, among others. Focusing on the competing demands of duty, honor, and personal aspirations, we will consider the theater as a microcosm of the court of Louis XIV. The class will read the plays in tandem with the propaganda campaigns promoting the Sun King that begin with Louis's much-anticipated birth and extend through his coronation, his marriage(s) and love affairs, his move from Paris to Versailles, his patronage of the arts, and his death and legacy. Prereq: Fr 325 or Fr 326. One-hour preceptorial for undergraduates

Topics in French Literature and History: The French New World

L34 French 461

France has been fascinated by the New World since its first travelers arrived there in the 16th century to establish the francophone Americas. Responding to that fascination, four centuries of writers have written back to France from the New World, describing, imagining, and arguing about the natural and human realms on this side of the Atlantic. In doing so, they laid the foundation of francophone culture in North America and the Caribbean. Beginning with Jacques Cartier's early 16th-century explorations in Canada, this course then moves through colonization and revolution in the United States and Haiti and finishes with contemporary literature from both the Caribbean and Quebec. By considering the various meanings and uses of the New World in French thinking, the class explores the ways French writers have mapped out their places and cultures in the Americas. We will read Cartier, Jean de Léry, chronicles of the Jesuit missions in New France, Chateaubriand, Césaire, and Condé, among others. Prereq: Fr 325 or Fr 326. One-hour preceptorial for undergraduates.

Second Language Acquisition

L34 French 466

There are many ways in which a second language can be learned: from infancy as the child of bilingual parents, or later through formal instruction, immersion in a new culture, or in a particular work or social situation. This class is an inquiry into the processes by which acquisition occurs. Topics include the nature of language learning within the scope of other types of human learning; the relationship between first and second language acquisition; the role of linguistic, cognitive, and sociocultural factors; insights gained from analyzing learners' errors; key concepts such as interlanguage and communicative competence; bilingualism; the optimal age for second language acquisition; and a critical appraisal of different theories of second language acquisition. Both theoretical and instructional implications of second language acquisition research are considered. This course can be used towards certification in TESOL and is a required course for the Graduate Certificate in Language Instruction. Prerequisite: Ling 170D or equivalent is recommended, especially for undergraduates, but is not required.

TOPICS IN FRENCH LITERATURE: FASHIONING A REVOLUTION: STYLE AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN FRANCE: 1700-1900

L34 French 468

From Marie Antoinette and the SANS-CULOTTES, to the debonair dandies and chic ladies of Haussmann's Paris, style and socio-political tensions have long been intertwined in France. This seminar will examine how fashion, as well as writing about fashion, expressed, reflected, and marked political upheavals and changing social roles during the 18th and 19th centuries. To elucidate how fashion emerges as a discourse that shapes and is shaped by the immense changes of these two revolutionary centuries, we will read Marivaux, LE JEU DE L'AMOUR ET DU HASARD; Beaumarchais, LE MARIAGE DE FIGARO; articles from the ENCYCLOPEDIE; Balzac, LE TRAITE DE LA VIE ELEGANTE; Barbey d'Aurevilly, DU DANDYSME ET DE GEORGE BRUMMELL; excerpts from Baudelaire, LE PEINTRE DE LA VIE MODERNE and LES FLEURS DU MAL; Zola, AU BONHEUR DES DAMES, and Mallarmé, LA DERNIERE MODE. Fashion plates, magazines, paintings, and caricature will also bolster our understanding of fashion's unique place in French literary and cultural history at the dawn of the modern era. Prereq: Fr 325 or Fr 326. One-hour preceptorial for undergraduates.
